In this paper, we propose that the polyphase scaler whose performance to that of the bicubic method, has less complexity in hardware structure. In order to get the new information, proposed system is based on the group delay which is one of the digital filter characteristics. The performance of this system is superior to that of bicubic algorithm which is well known. Because the hardware structure is simpler than other image scalers, we can adopt this system for mobile devices easily. The previous polyphase filters make blurring noise which is generated by up-scaling. We replace polyphase filters by boost-up filter to get vivid image. The proposed scaler is verified by Xilinx Virtex2 FPGA and is used as digital Boom in mobile camera phone.

Recently, the expectation of quality about images over the increasing demand of digital devices is increasing with the development of the technology of the digital. But the images are degraded by a variety of causes, and the main reason is the noises. Therefore, the necessity of denoising comes to the fore, and the research for denoising is progressing dynamically. The images are mainly degraded by AWGN(additive white Gaussian noise), and the characteristics of denoising of existing methods such as mean filter are insufficient. In this paper, an algorithm combined by the spatial weighted filter and the modified adaptive weighted filter is proposed in order to effectively remove the AWGN. In the simulation result, the proposed algorithm showed excellent denoising capabilities.

In recent years, digital processing techniques have been applied diversity of fields. Typical signal processing techniques are speech processing and image processing. And filters for the signal processing can be divided in FIR (finite impulse response) filter and IIR (infinite impulse response) filter. Compared with IIR filter, the FIR Filter has a defect of high-degree, but has a merit of stability and uses simply. Futhermore, FIR filter also has linear phase response characteristics, it is using in fields regarding wave information importantly. To FIR Filter design, the main issue is to remove the Gibbs phenomenon. Therefore, in this paper I was proposed a method using FIR digital filter applied a modified window function and the method was compared with conventional methods.

Today, we can use radio communication device anywhere-anytime. Sometimes, we use the device in acoustic noise environment. The acoustic noise makes many problems in communication system. In acoustic noise environment, speaker cannot send clear information to receiver, because the received signal includes both speech signal and noise signal. A digital filter is useful to remove noise to get desired signal. One of methods is the adaptive digital filter using the adaptive noise canceller that automatically adjust filter parameters. This thesis addresses articulation algorithms against actual acoustic noises by means of two adaptive filtering methods. One is the adaptive noise canceller with two input channels and another is the spectral subtraction filter with one input channel. The experimental result from the proposed filter shows that the adaptive noise canceller is useful to reduce the non-stationary noises, while the spectral amplitude filter is effective for stationary noises.

This paper proposes a realization method of multidimensional digital filters that has high modularity, regularity and parallelism enjoying the attributes for efficient VLSI implementation. The method shows that multidimensional transfer functions can be treated as two-dimensional transfer functions modifying the decomposition method of multidimensional transfer functions proposed by Venetsanopoulos etal, and then be displayed by multiplications and additions of one-dimensional transfer functions by applying the griangular decomposition theorem to the coefficient matrices of the two-dimensional transfer functions.

The Photoplethysmogram is a similar periodic signal that synchrinized to a heartbeat. In this paper, we propose a exponential weight moving average filter that use similarity of Photoplethysmogram. This filtering method has the average value of each samples through separating the cycle of PPG signal. If there are some motion artifacts in continuous PPG signal, disjoin the signal based on cycle. And then, we made these signals to have same cycle by coordinating the number of sample. After arrange these cycles in 2 dimension, we put the average value of each samples from starting till now. So, we can eliminate the motion artifacts without damaged PPG signal.

With the development of the information technology in recent years, the innovation of multimedia information technology also has been accelerated. Many fields of the digital image processing technologies as image data compression, recognition. restoration, etc. are now being studied actively. When transmitting and saving digital images, noise would be made, and we are using the image filters to remove the noise. The Image Filter used Digital Image Process basically has a two-dimensional structure. There are two methods of the filter's creation - One is reiterating one dimension, and the other is using an indivisible two-dimension image filter. The space domain method using mask is the latter one. That is inserting the value-multiplied pixels values faced each other when the two-dimension filter overlapped on input image- to the filter value's center position and the same position in the image. The image filter is being used widely along with one-dimension filter, according each noise. Most people are using various median filters to remove the impulse noise. However, in this paper, I suggested a powerful switching median filter and compared with conventional method for verification.

Digital radiography (DR) images are corrupted by the additive noise, and also distorted by system impulse response. These unwanted phenomena are obstacles to obtain the desired image. To recover the original image, we applied multiscale Wiener filters in wavelet domain for DR images. The multiscale Wiener filter is first proposed by Chen for the restoration of fractal signals which are distorted by the system impulse response and additive noise. In this paper, we extended the multiscale Wiener filter to the two dimensional data. To compare the performance of ours with others, some simulations are given for a couple of wavelet filters with different wavelet levels, system impulse reponses and various noise power. When the addive noise powers are between 20-32 dB, the signal to noise ratio(SNR) of the proposed system is 0.5-2.0 dB better than that of the traditional Wiener filter method.
